    thank you very much, judi. i really appreciate your help.

    i was wondering if i would need to get a laptop cell phone card thing. what is the cheapest provider to go with? which provider is the most consistent with signal?

    how much are drivers charged to use internet access at truck stops? just curious.

    Internet access -
    will depend who you drive for, some companies will only want you to refuel at certain truckstops becuase they have an account with them. You would probably get free wifi there (and a shower as well!) as part of the loyalty scheme.
    Truckstop companies also offer access which you buy, I think 3 months, 6 months and a year. Flying J is a good one, (I can't remember now how much it is but its probably on their website) but it depends a lot where you are running, there maybe be other schemes local to you.
    Another free option is getting to know which motels have free wifi and knowing where to park to be in range . . . .
